For the Traditionalist

For those of you out there that are having a traditional wedding, you might want a classic first dance song.

‘At Last’ – Etta James

For the Rocker

If you and your bride/groom-to-be like a little more rock in your lives, why not reflect that in your first dance song?

‘With Arms Wide Open’ – Creed

For the Country Star

Maybe you’re having a more country outdoorsy kind of wedding, so a country song would be perfect to fit with your theme.

‘You’re Still the One’ – Shania Twain

For the Cheese Ball!

When picking wedding music, it can be hard not to stray into the cheesy section, so why not just embrace it and go full cheese?!

‘Wind Beneath My Wings’ – Bette Midler

For the Movie Buff

If you’re struggling to find a song that really means something to you and your other half, why not think about which movies you love or have seen together?

‘I’ve Had the Time of My Life’ – Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes

For the Chiller

For a more chilled out wedding, you still want a song that’s romantic, but maybe not quite as corny as other popular songs.

‘The Book of Love’ – Peter Gabriel

For the Happy Couple!

You might decide that for your first dance you want something a little more upbeat that’s sure to put a smile on everyone’s faces!
